Ditting tests Aston DBR9 ahead of Masters Legends
German classic sportscar racer Nik Ditting had a first outing in his recently purchased Aston Martin DBR9 at Donington Park last week.
Ditting, who has previously raced an Alfa Romeo GTA, Ford GT40 and Chevron B16, is planning to race the car in next season’s new Masters Endurance Legends series.
Experienced sportscar racer Sam Hancock gave the GT1 car its shakedown, before Ditting took over.
The car is being run by Tim Samways, who has also tended it during its stay in a private collection over the last few years. “It had been in Brazil and hardly raced – I believe its last race was in 2006 at Interlagos,” said Samways.
